How to shift focus on the side bar of VSCode programmatically? Is there any specific command/end-point I can make use of?

I have some custom contributes.viewsContainers, they are not getting over-ridden by another. So is there any way I can have a focus on them manually after completing a certain task?

  • look in the key bindings GUI for the name of your View, it shows the command to use Commented Apr 18, 2022 at 9:48
  • @rioV8, it would be like calling the same action again. I was looking if there's any command which can help me choose between the view options Commented Apr 18, 2022 at 9:53
  • what do you mean with view options Commented Apr 18, 2022 at 9:55
  • I have some custom viewsContainers(options on the left side bar) for a specific language. And one command is over-lapping between 2 options in the side bar. Since the command is calling both the views. I want to make sure, that it ends up with focus only one view, currently it is focusing on the second one. Now I cannot change the sequence of execution. So is there any specific command to make them in focus? Eg., Focus on Search option programmatically. Commented Apr 18, 2022 at 10:13
  • one command is over-lapping between 2 options ???? What does it do? How is it calling both the views? If you don't call the things the right way you will not get an answer. If you give code examples of what you do..... Commented Apr 18, 2022 at 11:18
